What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 Even Hotels Franchise Disclosure Document, Exhibit J, Receipts, is included as part of the document. Item 23, which discusses receipts, indicates that the disclosure document a prospective franchisee receives should include several exhibits. Among these exhibits is Exhibit J, titled "Receipts."
This inclusion of Exhibit J signifies that Even Hotels requires documentation confirming the franchisee received the FDD. This receipt serves as proof that the franchisor provided the necessary information to the franchisee within the legally mandated timeframe, allowing the franchisee adequate time to review the document before making any commitments or payments.
Prospective Even Hotels franchisees should ensure that they receive all listed exhibits, including Exhibit J, with their Franchise Disclosure Document. After reviewing the FDD, the franchisee will sign and return the receipt to acknowledge they received the document. This receipt is a critical component of the franchising process, confirming that Even Hotels has met its legal obligations regarding disclosure.
